Corrections Officer Is Savagely Attacked By Inmates at a Missouri Jail

Four inmates have been charged with assaulting a prison officer after a video was released showing a savage beating in a Missouri jail. The inmates face third-degree assault charges and could be jailed for up to seven years on top of their current sentences. The officer who was beaten is expected to recover, but he was reportedly guarding the entire fifth floor where the most dangerous inmates are kept by himself.
